You’ve got book lovers in your life, but you have no clue what to get them for the holidays. You can’t buy them books — you’re never sure what they’ve been reading lately! You’re worried about getting them the same thing as someone else they know. You want something that feels special, something that feels unexpected and perfectly bookish.

Luckily for you, we’ve curated a list of our favorite bookish businesses. These small businesses create some of the best, most creative, most unique products out there, products based on your favorite romance, fantasy, and romantasy reads. These are the sort of gifts that bookish babes are going to go wild for. Check them out and check off all the book lovers on your holiday list!

Kristen’s Creations

Not only do we love Kristen’s Creations, but we have a gorgeous collab with her that you can find exclusively on our cart! Kristen does some absolutely incredible work, spending hours on designing, sourcing materials, and meticulously constructing each piece of jewelry by hand. Her love of reading shines through every piece she creates!

Inspired by your favorite books and series’, Kristen crafts some of the most elegant, eye-catching pieces that you’ll want to wear every day. From Terror at the Gates to Throne of Glass, she’s got something for everyone and every taste.

Raven Literary Co.

Raven Literary Co. is another company that we don’t just love — we stock on the cart!

If you’re looking for something special and unique, you’ve got to check out the pieces from Raven Literary Co. that bring together literature and artistry. From stunning glass cups for the iced-coffee-and-books babe on your list to stunning stickers to unique tees, there’s no shortage of bookish buys from this store.

Pinstory

Bookish babes love a pin! And they love a pin board. And they love stickers. And Pinstory offers all of the above!

One of the biggest problems with mainstream fantasy, romance, and romantasy is the lack of represenation. There are so many opportunities to create incredible realms and worlds based on cultures that aren’t European-based. One of the many beautiful things that Pinstory offers is a celebration of diversity within fantasy, crafting stunning pieces that center Black skin just as readily as white.

Book Club Bestie

Want to surprise your book lover with a truly unique and spectacular gift? You’ve got to check out Book Club Bestie!

There are so many options at Book Club Bestie, but our favorite has to be the Deluxe Gift Box. Every box includes a brand-new, hand-selected novel, six custom, hand-decorated cookies that match the book’s theme, a customized card, and all sorts of bookish extras. For added customization, you can either tell Book Club Bestie which book you want to gift or let them hand-select a title based on your friend’s favorite reads and their Goodreads or Fable entries!

Dragon Scale Designs

There isn’t anything quite as unique as hand-craft chainmail!

Dragon Scale Designs creates stunning pieces of wearable chainmail art. Each piece of mail is meticulously designed and constructed, ensuring your gift is not only thoughtful, but one-of-a-kind. From stunning custom pieces to ready-to-sell necklaces and earrings, you can find the perfect piece for your fantasty-obsessed bestie on their site.

Fabled Folke

If it’s bookish, Fabled Folke probably creates it!

From unique stickers to stunning tees to Kindle charms, this business has something for every reader on your list. This site is definitely for those who prefer romantasy, darker romance, or something with a bit of an edgy look. We’re obsessed with all the color ways and can’t get over the variety you can find on the site!

Narrative Threads

If you’re looking for a showstopper gift, Narrative Threads is where it’s at.

Not only does Narrative Threads create absolutely jawdropping knits, but a huge portion of their products are licensed merch! That means your favorite authors have given these stunning pieces their nod and seal of approval. Whether you’re into dragon riding, silver-haired gals or you prefer deadly assassins, there’s something for every fandom in this shop!

Pages & Ink

There’s not much that pairs better with books than a perfectly-scented candle.

Pages & Ink has so many great products, but we’re pretty partial to their fun, themed candles that come in a variety of fantastic scents and fandoms. They also create stunning bookmarks, Kindle grips, booksleeves, totes, and more!
